Apparently, Isko did not report such sale; did not pay the capital gains tax due; and did not declare the proceeds of sale as part of his income when he filed his tax returns. On a routine examination, the Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) happens to check on Isko’s tax returns. Knowing that Isko had a unit in MPTC, BIR asked management of information about it and its ownership status, which MPT complied. BIR learned that Isko did not register his sale of his unit and pay the taxes due, hence, he was assessed with deficiency taxes.
